About this Event
Open Clasp Theatre Company present:
Rupture
Written by Catrina McHugh MBE
Directed by Rachel Glover
Co-created with the women from HMP Low Newton
There is a code blue, Destiny escapes onto a Pr*son roof. It’s bonfire night, the country is exploding and so is Destiny.
The award-winning company behind Key Change (New York Times Critics’ Pick) and Sugar on BBC iPlayer bring you Rupture. Created with women from HMP Low Newton, and based on true-life experiences, Rupture is their story about being mothers in Pr*son.
“I am always activated and inspired and enraged by an Open Clasp Play. You are everything Theatre should be.” Audience Member on Rupture
“Absolutely incredible. Powerful and insightful. I feel I know so much more about the experiences of mothers in Pr*son. As always there is a spirit of fight, togetherness and love.” Audience Member on Rupture
The performance of Rupture will be followed by a post-show panel discussion. The discussion will last approximately 40 minutes and is included in the ticket price.
The panel will be chaired by the Writer of Rupture and Artistic Director of Open Clasp; Dr Catrina McHugh MBE, who will be joined by a panel of industry professionals and experts working with women in the Criminal Justice System discussing the themes within the play and how we can advocate for change.
